In Rainbows.Mr47fitter

Yeah it was incredible, its a close 6 for me.

Linkin Park - Minutes to Midnight

Atreyu - Lead Sails Paper Anchor

Raine Maida - The Hunters Lullaby

probably more, people have mentioned some others

Hmm I dunno but I have a feeling it was an album written by a corpoation and performed by a mainstream 'artist'. At least that seems to be the way the industry has gone in the last decade. *sigh* I miss originality.tequilasunriser

Also the "corporations manipulate everything and sellouts and no originality blah blah blah" deal isn't as cool as it was a couple years ago...

The Roundhouse Tapes by Opeth. Best live album I've ever heard.

Also The meaning of and all things regarding ms. leading by The dear hunter.

deerhoof - friend opportunity

the dirty projectors - rise above

m.i.a. - kala

caribou - andorra

As an alternative rock fan, Avenged Sevenfold, Paper Walls, and Arrivals and Departures are all good albums.

Modest Mouse's "We Were Dead Before The Ship Ever Sank" is one of the best albums ever (That was 2007, right?)... Other than that, I wasn't impressed by much. "Icky Thump" amazed me for awhile, but I overplayed it and it doesn't do much for me anymore...

I bought mostly older albums this year...I got the entire Nirvana collection (finally..lol...Guitar Hero and RockBand got me into them), the Radiohead album with "Creep" (RockBand), a David Bowie album, a 2006 Regina Spektor album...And so on...

American Gangster disappointed me, but I never liked Jay Z... "Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces" also disappointed.... I think Evans Blue put out a new album this year, which was decent, but I never listened to it enough..

My favorite album of the year (that I bought) is Nirvana's "In Utero" ...LOL

Oh, "Eat Me, Drink Me" was a great one for 07.
